Sophie had swept the paved path and moved some leaf litter to the compost pile. The professor still hadn't called time, so she decided to try for another task. Hmm...what still needed to be done? Looking around, Sophie saw a few more plants with dead foliage on them. She could always trim those.

She walked over to the plants and flicked out her wand. Studying the plant, she saw a good angle to trim and pointed her wand in that direction. "Flipnsnipwitit!" she said. She moved her wand to another piece of dead foliage and did the same. "Flipnsnipwitit!" she said.

She stayed at that plant until all the dead foliage was gone. Afterwards, she moved on to another plant. Pointing her wand toward a piece of dead foliage, she said, "Flipnsnipwitit!" Strange little incantation, that one.
